From My San Antonio: Obama says he didn’t inform Mexico of U.S. gun smuggling operation because he didn’t know about it
Under fire for an operation that allowed smuggling of U.S. weapons across the nation’s border with Mexico, President Obama said in an interview that neither he nor Attorney General Eric Holder authorized the controversial “Operation Fast and Furious.”Moving parts every one of which he has a direct line to and is supposed to know about. Isn't this a sign of incompetence? Actually, yes - yes it is. And Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) thinks so as well:
The Mexican government has complained that it didn’t know about the U.S. operation that allowed guns to illegally cross the southwestern border so they could track the weapons.
Obama told Univision‘s Jorge Ramos that President Felipe Calderon wasn’t informed of the operation because he — the president of the United States — wasn’t informed either. When asked whether he knew of the weapon smuggling plan, Obama responded that it is “a pretty big government” with “a lot of moving parts.”
2012 can't come soon enough.
